Fret Tallboy Cabinet

Some time ago whilst visiting the park I passed a house with the type of decorative block wall that was popular in the seventies. I was immediately arrested and stood staring at the pattern, I had seen it somewhere before. A couple of days later I was stuck on a new design for a sideboard when the pattern on the blocks just jumped into my head. After a little research and being very pleased with its Moorish origins I came up with a design incorporating it in the doors. I showed it to my brother, he wasn’t sure. ‘I’m not sure,’ he said. I smiled reassuringly. ‘It’s Moorish.’ I told him. ‘Oh I see,’ he replied. ‘Like a chocolate digestive.’ The Fret Tallboy is part of a very morish range of handmade and hand painted cabinets with inlaid laser cut frets in the doors and ends. Each self closing cupboard has a single adjustable shelf, except for the Tallboy which has two, and a painted back so that it can be used as a room divider. It comes in white as standard but other RAL colours are available on request.
